Текст Geoff Berner — Maginot Line

Did you hear about the foolish French , who hid themselves behind a trench
Filled it with a million men , ten thousand heavy guns and then
Figured they would be just fine , now they had the maginot line

Maginot line, maginot line, thought you were so safe and strong
Maginot line, maginot line, stupid, stupid, you were wrong

It wasn’t very long at all
Before Mr. Hitler came to call
He said: Boys, this line is strong and sound
Lucky for us we can just go around
The stark defenders fought their best
But their turrets faced East
And the Germans were West

Maginot line, maginot line, thought you were so safe and strong
Maginot line, maginot line, stupid, stupid, you were wrong

Maginot line, maginot line, why didn’t some smart fellow say:
Maginot line, maginot line, your guns are pointing the wrong way
Your guns are pointing the wrong way

So if you’ve got something you hold dear
And you’d hate to see it disappear
You think that everything’s just fine
Better check it one more time
And reflect upon the Maginot doom
A perfect fortress makes a perfect tomb

Maginot line, maginot line, thought you were so safe and strong
Maginot line, maginot line, stupid, stupid, you were wrong
Maginot line, maginot line, why didn’t some smart fellow say:
Maginot line, maginot line, your guns are pointing the wrong way
Your guns are pointing the wrong way
Your guns are pointing the wrong way
